FAITH-FILLED FRIDAYS - KIRK FRANKLIN'S "IMAGINE ME"

I remember vividly when Kirk Franklin's song "Imagine me" came out. It was early on in my self-love journey when I was still constructing a viable sense of self. Women are often socialized to outsource our value from men, from loved ones, or even from our work. I realized early on that this posturing would keep me weak and co-dependent. I wanted to truly develop a love for myself that would transcend both the compliments and the criticisms of others. It took a while, but I'm grateful that God fortified and healed me in particular areas that unlocked a deep and authentic self-love. But in every season, your assignment is different and requires different things from you. In this season of my life, I'm embarking on major goals that I don't feel fully qualified for. I've found myself questioning, doubting and even stopping because I still have certain areas where I feel inadequate. Listening to this song again helps me come into agreement with God about where He is calling me. It helps me to imagine myself walking in victory in every area that God is taking my feet. I hope it helps you imagine your victory also. Enjoy!
